Full Description
Navigate the competitive work landscape, redefine your approach to ambition, and reclaim your rhythm beyond burnout
In a culture that values productivity as a sign of success, many professionals are on the verge of burnout, pushed—sometimes unconsciously and other times overtly—to keep working, keep producing, and keep reaching new heights at an unsustainable pace, often at the expense of their physical and mental wellbeing. In The Rest Revolution, executive and personal branding coach Amanda Miller Littlejohn shows readers how to restore themselves after burnout, and navigate the rigors of competitive work without sacrificing self.
Inspired by Littlejohn's experience as an executive coach to high achievers, The Rest Revolution explores topics such as:
The modern causes of exhaustion
How personal achievement, social conditioning, and systemic barriers pose threats to rest
How high achievers can take their overworking tendencies off autopilot
How to use self-discovery to create your personalized plan to combat burnout
Balancing achievement with self-care and wellness
How perfectionism and imposter syndrome create a fertile ground for exhaustion
5 Rules of Rest - how to reclaim your time, mind, ambition, and more
How high achievers are breaking the burnout cycle with a rest framework derived from nature
Creative, prescriptive, and insightful with everything you need to reshape your approach to work and rest, The Rest Revolution is a deep dive into the causes of burnout, and an essential read for everyone looking to rise above workaholism while still achieving great heights in work, business, and life.
